Default Mogridge photo

Reportedly, Mogridge warmed up under the stands before the 7th game as part of Bucky Harris's strategy to get Bill Terry out of the game, but anything's possible. The photo is certainly from 1924, the only year they wore those beautiful white unis, and I'm guessing it was taken sometime during the series. He's not necessarily warming up to pitch that day, perhaps just limbering up at another home game of the series. Harris and Ewing were the gold standard for D.C. photographers in that period. Fabulous memento from the Nats only championship season--so far.
